Looking to update your wardrobe for the coming season? Here are some timeless fashion tips that will have you looking trendy all the time. 

Build Your Basics

Your wardrobe isn’t complete till you have all the staples – a pair of blue jeans, a classic blazer, button-downs and basic t-shirts in neutral colors, and a leather jacket. Investing in wardrobe pieces like these will help you mix and match effortlessly and put together looks that have a timeless appeal. 

Ensure Your Clothes Are Perfectly Tailored

Dresses that awkwardly bunch up and pants that are a little too long will make you look sloppy. A great way to make any piece of clothing look like a million bucks is by getting them tailored. Getting your clothes professionally tailored so they fit you perfectly will help you look polished, and will also keep you feeling very comfortable. 

Learn the Art of Balancing Proportions

Balancing proportions will help you style your outfits in an aesthetic manner. You can achieve this by making sure your clothes are fitted exactly to the shape of your body. 

Become Better at Shopping

Learn how to shop so you don’t walk out of the store with bags full of items you’ll never wear. The clothes you pick up should complement your style and what you already have in your wardrobe. 

Develop Your Personal Style

It’s important to find your own personal style. What’s trending on the runways should not dictate what you wear. Play around with different shapes and colors to find what works best for you. 

Mix Textures and Patterns

Mixing patterns can make you look effortlessly chic. That said, don’t go overboard. You may want to start off small by pairing neutral patterns like stripes with small amounts of paisley prints (either on a tie or a scarf, for instance).

Experiment with Color

If you are a little nervous about adding color to your wardrobe, you may want to start small by adding just one colorful piece at a time. Once you start feeling more comfortable wearing different colors, you’ll get an idea of what combinations work best.
